Linbo Yu
Clinical Instructor (Affiliated), Pediatrics - Genetics
BioLinbo Yu is a genetic counselor and a founding member of Stanford’s Genetic Testing Optimization Service (GTOS). She received her undergraduate degree from the University of California, Los Angeles in 2007 and her master’s degree in genetic counseling from the University of California, Irvine in 2009. She started her career at Ambry Genetics. In 2014, she became the first lab genetic counselor at Stanford Hospital and helped establish Genetic Testing Optimization Service (GTOS). As a passionate clinical liaison between Stanford Clinical Lab and the ordering providers at Stanford, some of her roles include assisting clinicians with selection of genetic tests, reviewing genetic test orders for clinical appropriateness and educating ordering providers about genetic diseases and test information. Linbo is also a clinical instructor of Department of Pediatrics, and she enjoys clinical supervision of genetic counseling students.

Miki Yu
Assistant Director, Strategic Outreach, Precourt Institute for Energy
BioMiki Yu joined Precourt Institute for Energy (PIE) as an Event and Outreach Program Planner. In this role she will help shape the programs that PIE, TomKat Center and GCEP offer as they build greater visibility within the Stanford community, the energy community at large, and throughout the world.
Miki started at Stanford working for the Office of Development in 2002, where she reported to the Vice President’s office. She then joined the Stanford Challenge Campaign as an initial team member, working with OOD partners and engaging volunteers and donors at every stage to build and direct momentum for The Stanford Challenge campaign. She was instrumental in executing the Leading Matters component of the campaign, which achieved record breaking attendance and engagement results. -
Yaochun Yu
Assistant Professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering
BioMy research focuses on functional environmental microbiology and environmental analytical chemistry to uncover and harness microorganisms for chemical biotransformation. We integrate high-resolution mass spectrometry, meta-omics sequencing, molecular microbiology and biochemistry, and computational modeling to identify the functional microbes, genes, and enzymes that drive these processes. Building on these mechanistic insights, we aim to develop environmentally benign chemicals and novel biosolutions for bioremediation and waste-to-resource recovery.
I am also interested in how anthropogenic perturbations (i.e., chemical exposure) reshape microbial biodiversity and ecosystem function across natural and engineered ecosystems. We aim to resolve these cause–effect relationships and, using standardized and synthetic microbial communities, run comparable, hypothesis-driven experiments that translate fundamental insights into predictive tools and practical interventions. The aim is to help keep human activities within the safe operating space of planetary boundaries while advancing environmental and public health. -

Zhefu Yu
Postdoctoral Scholar, Physics
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy research aims to understand how supermassive black holes (SMBHs) grow over cosmic time, one of the key questions in astrophysics.
I have done substantial work in accurately measuring the mass of SMBHs through reverberation mapping (RM). In particular, I derived a new relationship between the radius of the Mg II broad line region and the continuum luminosity of the active galactic nuclei (AGN) based on the OzDES RM project, which is critical for SMBH mass measurements and demographic studies in cosmic noon – the peak of AGN activity. I have also done extensive work in understanding the accretion physics in both AGN and quiescent SMBHs.
Now my work focuses on better understanding the accretion onto SMBHs, the major path of SMBH growth. I collaborate closely with the XOC group and the Rubin LSST team in KIPAC. My research probes the inner most region of the AGN accretion disk through joint analysis of the X-ray spectral and timing data. I will also probe the accretion disk through time domain analysis of the LSST data in the near future. -

Anisa Yudawanti
Ph.D. Student in Education, admitted Autumn 2023
Bioa-nee-sa yoo-da-wan-tee
she/her/hers
Anisa Yudawanti (she/her) is a PhD Candidate in Race, Inequality, and Language in Education in the Graduate School of Education. She comes to Stanford by way of the Midwest and West Sumatra, Indonesia.
Drawing on her experience as a community-based youth worker and high school social studies teacher, Anisa's research moves us to consider what studies of space and movement can bring to bear on our understanding of schools. Her scholarship sits at the intersections of education studies, Black and critical geographies, and abolition and carceral studies. Her current study examines schools as sites of enclosure and how racially marked youth navigate school space through the lens of escape and fugitivity. She situates her inquiry in the Midwest and the Bay Area. -
Kin Min Yuen
Clinical Associate Professor, Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences - Sleep Medicine
BioDr. Kin Yuen is a board-certified physician in sleep medicine, and is a fellow of the American Academy of Sleep Medicine. She is an associate physician diplomate at University of California at San Francisco, and adjunct faculty member at Stanford University School of Medicine, Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Services. Before her fellowship in Sleep Medicine, she practiced internal medicine at the Stanford Medical Group. She then spent two years in clinical sleep medicine research at the Stanford Sleep Disorders Center concurrent with acquiring her Masters of Science degree from Stanford University in Health Policy/Health Services Research. She was a current member of Public Safety Committee of the American Academy of Sleep Medicine.
She is also an advisory member to the Continuing Medical Education Committee of School of Sleep Medicine in Palo Alto. Dr. Yuen has been a principal investigator in clinical research of cardiac arrhythmia, medical devices, and has co-authored articles in health economic evaluations, women and sleep disorders.
